Chapter 1756: Chapter 1756: Where is the Emperor’s Confidant?

"Hiss!"

A few officials gathered together drew a sharp breath when they heard his words.

If it really was that lady healer, then wasn’t she too bold? To actually go ahead and arrest General Su?

"This General Su, won’t rise from the ashes again, will he?"

Someone speculated.

After all, if the person who arrested General Su wasn’t an official dispatched by the court, then General Su could simply send someone to move around in the Capital, and there might still be a possibility of him making a comeback.

General Su was, after all, the commander of a region; if his merits were significant enough, he could even be given a title of nobility.

"No, no, that won’t happen," someone immediately said.

"Let alone the person who arrested General Su, even our Commandery Governor won’t give General Su any chance to make a comeback."

Not to mention the Commandery Governor, would they, themselves, be able to watch idly as Su Wan rises again and wreaks havoc on them, wreaks havoc on the people of Lotus Commandery?

...

Meanwhile, in the Lotus Commandery commandery mansion.

Commandery Governor Jin Jian’s eyes widened as he stared at the man and woman who appeared before him like deities.

"You, you are..."

"Never mind who we are, Commandery Governor Jin," Lin Caisang said steadily as she gazed at Commandery Governor Jin. "I just want to ask you this, do you still want to work with Su Wan?"

Upon hearing her statement, Jin Jian’s face turned red.

The name Su Wan had been a nightmare haunting his heart for years.

Lotus Commandery might not have been wealthy, but it wasn’t too bad a place either. Even if there were occasional bandit problems, they could be handled by sending in the troops.

But what about now?

Even though there were hardly any bandit issues, the people were living miserably.

He had even heard some of his subordinates secretly discussing how many people would rather move to the remote counties, towns, or even villages of Lotus Commandery, rather than stay within the commandery itself.

Because the people from Su Wan’s household were just too brutal and ruthless.

Even he, the Commandery Governor, had to deliver gifts to Su Wan every year. It didn’t matter whose birthday it was in his family or any other occasion; Su Wan would always find an excuse to hold a banquet, making everyone’s life miserable.

Such a person, to put it harshly, he wouldn’t hesitate to eat Su Wan’s flesh and drink his blood!

"You... really have a way? Commander Su is... is after all a confidant of the Emperor," he tentatively said.

"The Emperor’s confidant?"

Lin Caisang glanced sideways at her Brother Molian.

"In his early years, Su Wan was one of the Emperor of Liang’s guards, bravely fighting in battles, which was why he was promoted to be the commander of Lotus Commandery. His wife was also once a palace maid at the side of the Empress."

Zimo explained to her.

"Heh."

Lin Caisang coldly laughed.

"I didn’t expect these two to be so capable."

"Yes, that’s right, young master, Miss, I would advise you... it’s better not to... oppose General Su, he really is a person you don’t want to provoke,"

Jin Jian said to the two of them.

If it wasn’t so, why would he have been acting as a powerless Commandery Governor within Lotus Commandery?

Truly no one in Lotus Commandery could afford to provoke Su Wan and his wife.

"Is that so?"

Lin Caisang didn’t even look at Commandery Governor Jin but continued to look at Zimo.

"Brother Molian, what do you think? If I want the heads of Su Wan’s family, will my uncle present their heads as a gift to me? Huh?"

She asked.
